We do what you say, and we go to the bank. Anything goes wrong, you're gonna turn around and I'll be gone. Okay. And if that happens, from this day on, any time your kid leaves this house to go to school, go play, see a friend, to buy a ****in' comic book, you're gonna have to ask yourself: Is today... Jimmy Shaker day?

3 scenes Detective Jimmy Shaker [holding a gun to Cubby's head and clamping a hand on his mouth]
Are you a known scumbag in this precinct? Go on, shake your head. Go on!
Detective Jimmy Shaker [Cubby nods]
Now, a high profile kid was snatched yesterday. You got no idea who knows about it. Cops, FBI, anybody, right?
Detective Jimmy Shaker [Cubby shakes his head]
So what do you do? You - a known scumbag - walk into a grocery store filled with cops and you ask for a box of kiddy cereal? Now, I don't know about you, but I think that makes you a four-star asshole. What do you think?
Detective Jimmy Shaker [Cubby nods. Shaker uncovers Cubby's mouth and puts his gun away]
What the hell were you gonna do with the videos? Kid's got tape on his eyes, for Christ's sake!
Cubby Barnes I thought he could listen to 'em.
Detective Jimmy Shaker Jesus! Don't be stupid again.
Detective Jimmy Shaker You want to talk to your son?
Yes, of course I do.
Sean Mullen
[Jimmy puts phone up to Sean's mouth]
Daddy? Dad?
I want to listen.
Detective Jimmy Shaker [Kate puts on headphones]
That's enough.
No, put him back on, I want to talk to him.
Detective Jimmy Shaker You just did. Now, you listen, real, real good. You've got one more chance to pay up, or you're never gonna talk to him again. No more **** around. This is it. Right now. What's it gonna be?
...No. This is bullshit. You're not gonna touch him. You can't be that stupid. Do you have any idea the rain of shit I can put on you?
Detective Jimmy Shaker Look at your wife. Look at her face, mother****er. Do you know what I can do to your boy?
Is it dark where you're calling from? Got the shades drawn? Kind of like a cellar, right? Like a cave? Well, you better get used to that. You better get used to crawling in the dark for the rest of your days, because I am gonna get the best group of manhunters in this country, and I am gonna dedicate my life to tracking you down.
Detective Jimmy Shaker Hey, hey, get your head out of your ass! You think you can threaten me, huh? Who do you think you're dealing with? GIMME THE MONEY!
**** you and your two million! Don't you understand English, you useless piece of shit? No money! None!
Detective Jimmy Shaker Let me tell you something. You think you're suffering now, huh? You got no idea what suffering is. If I don't get the cash in one hour, this kid is dead!
I don't get my son back, and I mean real soon, you better kill yourself, because when I catch up with you, I'm gonna take my goddamn time. By the time we're finished, you're gonna wish you weren't born! I'll have your head on a **** pike, do you understand me?
Detective Jimmy Shaker **** you! I'll **** kill him right now!
I want to talk!
You kill him, you kill yourself, you mother****er! GIVE ME BACK MY SON!
Hello?!
Detective Jimmy Shaker : YOU WANT HIM?
YES!
Detective Jimmy Shaker YOU WANT HIM?

[Jimmy fires gun]
Detective Jimmy Shaker [whispering, after beating Kate]
It's very simple.
Detective Jimmy Shaker [Kate moans from pain and through a choke-hold]
I'm growing very, very tired of this bullshit.
Then could you...
Detective Jimmy Shaker It's up to you. Get him to take back the reward and pay me my money... or you're gonna find pieces of your little boy all over New York. I'm not gonna waste a bullet. I'm just gonna sharpen my knife.
